vanko25 70 Report post Posted March 4, 2017 @TTR I just read on the PH forum that they do a sweep up on Saturday too and send out emails to the people that don't have one. I will wait a bit until later on and give you a shout if I need one. I would like to meet you guys in the morning before going, are you still meeting up at the same place?

TTR 509 Report post Posted March 4, 2017 Would everyone be ok to push back 30 minutes to 0815 at the Towcester McDonald's? Just seen that there are indeed multiple track briefings, so don't need to turn up mega early! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vanko25 70 Report post Posted March 4, 2017 @Minion @TTR if I don't get printout from PH I will get one from you. I am happy with 0815. Got a good 1hr journey to there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rather it be used by one of you guys than go to waste. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If @TTR's friend ends up not wanting it then you're free to have it. I'll be at the Maccies meetup beforehand so can give the papers to whoever there.

Lauren 2259 Report post Posted March 5, 2017 Ah the aluminium one? The sump guard then! Sounds like it wasn't on properly. That shouldn't happen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The plastic one. But yeah don't think it was on properly tbh. Guess my car just has a Dynamic weight saving feature. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vanko25 70 Report post Posted March 5, 2017 It was fortunate that I did my positive shifting Powerflex bush yesterday so knew where all the bolts are. As Tash said early on today it could be because the aluminium one is not fitted on the car. It was a great day though. Even it pissed down most of the time enjoyed it a lot! Great chat with all of the guys. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Minion 132 Report post Posted March 5, 2017 Somehow all the plastic rivets popped off whilst he was tracking it, no idea how all of the managed to come out, just the 3 10mm bolts left holding it on so quickly jacked up and removed the and as good as new. Good job @vanko25 had longer arms than me to reach the bolts Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vanko25 70 Report post Posted March 5, 2017 I believe the front part of thr tray was ripped off when caught on something. At the front should be more 10mm bolts. How exactly happend I don't know Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd say that's definitely likely. They are both designed to smooth airflow under the car and it does attach to the metal tray. If you remove the metal tray, you lose the main fixing points and then subject it to turbulent air. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
